Wonderful place to spend the day, boating 🚢, hiking 🚶‍♂️ and fishing. Also tables and grill for picnicking. Just fun to see all the different boats co.ming and going.

Easy area to launch boat or kayaks from. Plenty of area to enjoy the water without feeling crowded. There were also outhouses right near the parking.

Besides the road to the ramp being narrow and windy, we find this to be one of the most accessible ramps in the area and one of the nicest.

Get out there and have a blast. Stay...
